Old street station is within walking distance and you will have the bars, shops and markets of Shoreditch on your dorstep.

Shoreditch is a residential area in the London Borough of Hackney, loosely defined as the area bordered by Old Spitalfields Market to the south, Old Street to the north, Brick Lane to the east and Old Street Station to the west.

This funky corner of London has been made a hit by arty types, musicians and designers. So many bars and clubs have sprung up over the last decade that you’ll need to make a couple of trips if you want to sample them all.
